SwarmFarm Robotics is revolutionizing agriculture with its advanced autonomous robotic solutions designed to enhance efficiency, precision, and sustainability on farms of all sizes. Founded in 2015 in Gindie, Queensland, Australia, the company develops lightweight, modular robots capable of performing a range of agricultural tasks, including spraying, weeding, mowing, and monitoring crops. Equipped with cutting-edge sensors, cameras, and GPS-guided navigation, these robots operate fully autonomously, enabling farmers to increase productivity while reducing labor costs and operational risk.

A hallmark of SwarmFarm Robotics’ innovation is its “dock and refill” system, allowing robots to autonomously recharge, refill, and redeploy in the field without manual intervention. This feature decouples equipment size from productivity, reduces soil compaction, and ensures precise application of inputs, supporting sustainable farming practices. The company’s solutions are suitable for broad-acre farms as well as horticultural and specialty crop operations, helping farmers maximize efficiency while minimizing environmental impact.

Operating from its headquarters in Gindie with an advanced manufacturing hub in Toowoomba, Queensland, SwarmFarm Robotics continues to expand its reach across Australia and internationally. By combining intelligent automation, modular design, and a focus on sustainability, SwarmFarm empowers modern farmers with practical, high-performance solutions that transform agriculture into a smarter, safer, and more efficient industry.

Company Information

SwarmFarm Robotics is an Australian agtech pioneer revolutionizing agriculture through autonomous, modular robots designed for precision and sustainability. Founded in 2015 by Andrew and Jocie Bate, the company has developed a fleet of lightweight robots capable of performing tasks such as spraying, weeding, and mowing across broad-acre and horticultural applications. These robots are equipped with advanced sensors and cameras, enabling them to operate efficiently and autonomously in various farming environments.

Operating from their headquarters in Gindie, Queensland, SwarmFarm Robotics has expanded its operations with a new manufacturing hub in Toowoomba, Queensland, established in 2024. This facility supports the growing demand for autonomous farming solutions and provides numerous high-tech job opportunities in mechatronic engineering, software design, and manufacturing Courier Mail.

The company’s commitment to innovation is evident in its development of the “dock and refill” capability, allowing robots to autonomously refill and refuel, effectively decoupling equipment size from productivity levels. This advancement promotes sustainable farming practices by reducing soil compaction and pesticide inputs, aligning with SwarmFarm Robotics’ mission to empower farmers with efficient and sustainable agricultural solutions.
